External carotid artery stenting in symptomatic internal carotid artery occlusion

Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2020
We report the case of a patient with an anterior ischemic stroke due to tandem occlusion of the left M2 segment and ipsilateral internal carotid artery (ICA), with concomitant severe stenosis of the ipsilateral external carotid artery (ECA) and contralateral ICA, and moderate stenosis of the left vertebral artery (VA); as thrombectomy was not possible,

External Carotid Artery

2020
The external carotid artery (ECA) gives off various branches supplying musclocutaneous organs, visceral organs (pharynx, oral cavity, larynx, and thyroid), cranial nerves, facial and skull bones, and dura matter. It communicates to the cerebral arteries and ophthalmic artery via various potential anastomoses.

Tentorial arteries arising from the external carotid artery [PDF]

Neuroradiology, 1978
Two cases illustrating an unusual connexion between the middle meningeal artery and tentorial branches, normally arising from the siphon, are reported. The significance of this anastomosis is discussed.

External Carotid Artery

2011
The external carotid artery (ECA) arises from the common carotid bifurcation at the C4 vertebral level. A more proximal or distal origin can occur. Variants of the level of the carotid bifurcation are described in Chap. 2. These variants also involve indirectly the origin of the ECA. The ECA may originate directly from the aortic arch.

Congenital External Carotid Artery Aneurysm

Annals of Vascular Surgery, 2010
An 8-month-old child presented with a right pulsatile neck mass. The tumor's rapid increase in size and respiratory problems prompted image evaluation. An external carotid artery aneurysm was found, which was compressing other neck structures. The patient underwent aneurysm resection and ligation at its insertion on the common carotid artery.

The treatment of cerebral ischemia by external carotid artery revascularization.

Archives of Surgery, 1983
Thirteen patients with internal carotid artery occlusion and symptomatic external carotid artery stenosis underwent external carotid artery revascularization by means of endarterectomy (n = 10) or subclavian artery--external carotid artery bypass (n = 3).

Arteriovenous Fistula of External Carotid Artery

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1968
ARTERIOVENOUS fistulas of the face and neck are rare clinical entities but do occur either as congenital disorders or as the result of trauma. Flynn and Mulder 1 define the congenital arteriovenous fistula as a nontraumatic vascular abnormality in which the arterial blood passes into the venous system without traversing the capillary bed.

External Carotid Dissection and External Carotid Proatlantal Intersegmental Artery with Subclavian Steal Prompting External Carotid and Subclavian Artery Stenting

Journal of Neuroimaging, 2013
ABSTRACTBACKGROUND AND PURPOSEThe authors describe a case of a proatlantal intersegmental artery seen in the setting of external carotid artery dissection and subclavian steal due to proximal subclavian artery stenosis.METHODSAn 83‐year‐old woman presented with left homonymous hemianopsia and a right posterior cerebral artery distribution stroke.

Lateral position of the external carotid artery: a rare anomaly?

Radiology, 1973
Lateral position of the external carotid artery has been infrequently reported and thus has been considered by many to represent a rare anomaly. In a series of 587 angiograms, this anomaly represents a common finding, with an incidence dependent upon the
